I love stop motion animation. I tried it. Made a chair walk across the room. Also did one with a doll and dollhouse. Very amateurish, but fun. Dunno, maybe it's partially because I love dolls/puppets, the personifications of us, and also giving life to the inanimate. That probably has something to do with it. Being god-like. Perhaps because stop motion animation incorporates actual physical representations, as opposed to non-physical forms of animation, like traditional (although those are drawn out in a similarly time consuming way), and computer generated in all Ds.Animation in general has always interested me, there are sooooo many forms, from simple flip books to complicated animatronics and everything in between and beyond. You could spend a life time with it in all it's different forms.Anyway, back to stop motion. I mean, who doesn't like it? Most of us have grown up with it, like all the Christmas stop motion films, and the amazing Tim Burton works. I like what Jan Švankmajer has done, and was also to a lecture at the Mütter Museum by the Quay Brothers for their 'Weeping Glass'. K, so I saw this today. It is amusing. Maybe that is what we are, nothing more than remote controlled stop motion (or pre-programmed) figures.

Ah, where to begin...Well, it all started when an anomaly caused a shift in the space/time continuum, and I was somehow transported here, in this universe.(It's all very complicated, way beyond human comprehension.)Presently posing as an American, for eternities (in your sense of time) I have tried to find my way back, as it is a constant struggle to keep my atoms from disassembling, and quite painful, too, I might add.After all these many eons, I find I've become rather fond of this place, and some of it's inhabitants, and have decided there is nothing left for me in my own dimension any longer.I have finally found what makes it all worth suffering for....to cast off one's skin and have some fun!
